VA Northern Indiana Healthcare serves individuals and families in Marion, IN and the surrounding region who are struggling with substance abuse, mental health challenges, or both. Located at 1700 East 38th Street in Marion, this facility specializes in treating patients with co-occurring mental and substance use disorders—a population that often faces unique barriers to care. By integrating mental health and substance abuse treatment under one roof, VA Northern Indiana Healthcare addresses the root causes of addiction rather than symptoms alone.
VA Northern Indiana Healthcare offers multiple levels of care to meet patients where they are in their recovery journey. Outpatient programs allow individuals to receive treatment while maintaining work, school, or family responsibilities—ideal for those with a stable home environment and moderate support systems. Residential short-term care (30 days or less) provides intensive, structured treatment for patients who need to step away from their current environment but are ready for a faster transition back to independent living. Residential long-term care (30 days or more) is designed for individuals requiring extended support, stabilization, and skill-building in a therapeutic community setting. The facility also utilizes buprenorphine treatment, an FDA-approved medication that reduces cravings and withdrawal symptoms, helping patients achieve stability while addressing underlying mental health conditions through specialized co-occurring disorder programs.
VA Northern Indiana Healthcare accepts Medicare, private health insurance, military insurance (VA and TRICARE), and self-payment options, ensuring that financial circumstances do not prevent access to care. Many private insurance plans are required by law to cover mental health and substance abuse treatment equally to other medical conditions under the Mental Health Parity Act, which may mean lower out-of-pocket costs than you expect. The facility welcomes patients to discuss payment arrangements and financial assistance programs during the admission process.
